I don't think it's very common even if it did happen to me twice in three months . . .

This just happened to my 2023 C2S with the light weight glass option after 16k miles. I was driving when it happened — two sudden “crack” sounds right after one another, at which point I pulled over, and saw radial cracks. I’ve not had the windows tinted.

I am thankful I didn’t spec this glass back when I ordered my car. This issue is such a headache.

Knowing what I did when I ordered the T I would have happily avoided LWNG IF I could've gotten my 992T with standard glass but that option wasn't available.

Frankly, I’d spec it again for the noise reduction. To each his own. I hope they’re working on improving the tech to eliminate spidering.

^^ I don't and won't ever realize the difference so my response is the same: I'd order standard glass if able.
